Morning all,

Late check in this morning.  Slept late and had charting to do after a busy day yesterday.  Have been out for a not quite two mile walk in a local park.  This is the furthest my wife has probably walked at one time since her knee surgeries.  

No plans for the day, maybe some room cleanup as one of the neighbors asked my wife if he could come see the layout sometime.

It's a rather dreary day in SE NH, cloudy and some intermittent showers.  More rain later tonight, which we really need.  

Pick-up/Put-away is always a good project when there's nothing else on your list.  

Before PT this afternoon, I'll assemble a couple more tables and desks, and maybe some chairs.  The Winchendon Machine kit came with 2 full 'pages' of furniture for the interior, desks, tables, chairs, a pipe rack, shelves.

Afternoon all,

Sitting here waiting for a telemed appointment. Already 1/2 hour late. Also have a call later with our financial advisor. Other than that, just a lazy type of day.

Have a great one!

Wednesday evening, lazy day.  Weather ran the gamut, fog, rain, clouds, sun.

Cat to the vet today, $$$.$$  :P

Watched a couple instructional videos on 3d stuff. 

Headed to Northern Command tomorrow after an early eye Doc appointment I've waited  months for.  Doc is on half days now.  They over book and all the usual modern inconveniences of modern medicine. Used to book a year out but THEIR new system doesn't go that far ahead. Showed up early for my scope yesterday and was at least 2 hours late due to new computers.  I was about blue from the 680 room.  Was 2-3 hours once home to quit shivering.  :-\

Watched a movie last night about the process used to "compensate" 9-11 victims.  So sad. 

We've been looking for a newer 4Runner, prices we've seen are astonishingly high and it seems a new caveat to be aware of. One I looked at online as "Rebuilt Title - Hail Damage This 4Runner was previously damaged by hail. The cost to repair the damage exceeded a percentage of the value and the insurance company took ownership of the vehicle. All of these vehicles have been inspected by the police department and transition to a Rebuilt Title. I'd be curious what they had done and if it was insurance elegible. It mentioned some sort of police inspection had been done.  Not familiar with that type of situation.  $27k. Pics look like no repair to body damage. 

Well , off to pack for the road.  Be well,all

Good evening. I had to hurry out this morning to attend the funeral of a friend from Seashore Trolley Museum.  Roger Tobin was very active for many years, bringing his experience as an operating official at Boston's MBTA. I did get in some actual volunteering at the Museum later but by then it had gone from heavy overcast to misty drizzle.  Dealing with email now, then bed.
